New Supra Owner

Schrom · 03-18-2014, 02:54 AM

I recently purchased a 1998 Supra N/A AT.

I've been looking into doing some upgrades into it, and I've been around and read enough online to know, I don't know what I'm doing.

First I wanna do new wheels, but I don't wanna skip out now and get the wrong thing that I will have to correct in the future.

I'm looking to eventually have around 500HP, daily driver.

I'm moving into this slow, I currently have a VVT-i with around 135k Miles, I'm guessing I'll have to do an engine swap to handle the 500HP well. But I can't just hop into that now.

I also know I will have to eventually do a Built Auto Transmission to handle the HP.

So what I'm asking now, is where to go with wheels, exhaust, engine, transmission, brakes, as well as do I need to do suspension upgrades or anything with that?

Also, I'm in AZ and I do not know any reliable supra mechanics or tuners yet if anyone has any ideas.

Thanks for any help guys.
